"Hey Steve, there's traffic coming in.... answer the phone please!"

That was never uttered. Ads generated leads. And sales reps turned them into customers. Customers is another seldom spoken word. In the dehumanized jargon we send conversions, not create customers.

So true Steve! I have worked as a sales person for a shipping line and we never used the word "traffic". Indeed potential customers are leads. I use the word traffic since I have been in the adult industry.

At my former job the word traffic did came back every day... as in TRAFFIC jam.
